    RE-EVALUATING MAPS OF DOMESDAY POPULATION DENSITIES: A case study from the Cambridgeshire fenland By SUSAN OOSTHUIZEN Abstract Professor Sir Clifford Darby’s county, regional and national maps of a range of data drawn from the Domesday Book revolutionized scholarship on the social and economic history of late Anglo-Saxon England (e.g. 1935, 1936a, 1936b, 1971, 1977). While this paper does not seek to challenge Darby’s general conclusions, a case study re-examination of the inter-relationship between population density and physical geography in the Cambridgeshire fenland in 1086 suggests the regional usefulness of methodological adjustments to his mapping. It indicates that the population density of the peat and silt fens in the late eleventh century may have been significantly higher than that shown in Darby’s original maps, with implications for the contemporary social and economic history of eastern England. Introduction The magnificence of many fenland churches allows even a complete stranger to infer the large numbers of inhabitants in and general prosperity of the region during the middle ages (Illustration 1, Figure 1). Its affluence is confirmed in the lay subsidies of 1327, 1332 and 1334. Settlements on the silt fens (for which there is the most information) were so prosperous that they generated among the highest returns per square mile and per vill in England, as well as some of the highest rates per taxpayer (Campbell and Bartley 2006: Maps 18.3, 18.13). Although only 20% of English settlements paid more than £225 in 1334, that select group includes not only Ely (paying £358), Leverington (paying £360), and Wisbech (paying £410) but almost every other silt fen vill (Glasscock 1973: 181-3; 1975: 28, 107, 168-9).

  • Bolney to Lindfield – 8½ Miles

    Bolney to Lindfield – 8½ Miles

    Bolney to Lindfield – 8½ miles Cross the new A23 by means of the underpass, go straight ahead at the cross path and proceed downhill through woodland. This path is narrow and in places growth has obscured a rut or small ditch on the left so care is needed. The path emerges on to Buncton Lane. Turn left along the lane. Ignore the first footpath sign to the right at ‘Pickwell’ and take the next path on the right, TQ273233. Follow signs uphill to the north-east making for the distant house visible across two fields. A stile and a gate lead out to Bishopton Lane by the house, TQ277237. Cross at the stile opposite and enter Black Forest. Turn left (north) at the signposted 3 way footpath junction. Now proceed downhill into Long Wood and cross the stile into Broxmead Lane and turn right. After about 200 yards the lane turns sharp left, at this point take the footpath leading off to the right. Go down a short track and enter the vineyard through the gate. Cross the vineyard and go out of the next gate, turn right at the field boundary and follow the track to Deaks Lane, TQ288246. Turn left, past ‘Cuckfield Cattery’ and go right through a gate into a field opposite ‘The Wylies’. The route from here into Cuckfield follows the ‘High Weald Landscape Trail’. Continue down the slope to a bridge over a stream and ascend a track through woodland. Ignore a cross track. Follow signs along a chicken wire fence, then across the stile into the open with views opening up to the South Downs and the spire of Cuckfield Church ahead.

    Cuckfield Neighbourhood Plan Pre Submission

    Cuckfield Neighbourhood Plan Pre Submission - Statement of Consultation Regulation 19 of The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) July 2013 Cuckfield Neighbourhood Plan Statement of Consultation 1. Introduction The Cuckfield Neighbourhood Plan will provide the planning framework in the Parish the next 20 years. Following consultation on the draft Neighbourhood Plan in February and March 2012, the Plan has now reached the ‘proposed submission’ stage of the plan making process. Regulation 19 of The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England), Regulation 2012 requires the publication of the proposed submission Neighbourhood Plan prior to the Submission of the Plan for examination. As part of this publication process the Parish Council is required to prepare a statement that sets out: • which bodies and persons were invited to make representations under Regulation 18 • how those bodies and persons were invited to make such representations • a summary of the main issues raised by those representations • how those main issues have been addressed in the Neighbourhood Plan A list of those bodies and persons invited to make representations under regulation 18 has also been set out later in this document. The Community Engagement Action Plan (Cuckfield Neighbourhood Plan Evidence) sets out how those bodies and persons were invited to make such representations under regulation 18. All representations made were considered by the plan team and Parish Councillors at the following meetings of the Parish Council. A table summarising the timetable is set out below. Copies of the reports considered at these meetings and minutes are available on the Parish web site. These reports also set out how issues raised during the consultation have been addressed in the Pre Submission Neighbourhood Plan.
